鈥淩egardless of where I鈥檓 going, I鈥檓 doing ortho and that鈥檚 all I care about鈥滼ake always had it in the back of his mind that he wanted to be an orthopedic surgeon and med school only solidified that. With an above average Step 1 score, but a below average one for the orthopedic surgery field, he knew it would take some work to achieve his dream. We talk about how he compensated for his Step score and what 鈥渟nagging鈥 honors mean and why it鈥檚 important. He relays his experience of being asked to sing karaoke at one of his residency interviews and finally, how he responded to opening up his match envelope and seeing that he matched where he felt his worst interview had occurred. #Classof2017 #KansasCity
